Job 7:17-18
Good News Translation
17 (A)Why are people so important to you?
Why pay attention to what they do?
18 You inspect them every morning
and test them every minute.
Psalm 144:3
Good News Translation
3 (A)Lord, what are mortals, that you notice them;
mere mortals, that you pay attention to us?
Hebrews 2:6-8
Good News Translation
6 (A)Instead, as it is said somewhere in the Scriptures:
“What are human beings, O God, that you should think of them;
mere human beings, that you should care for them?
7 You made them for a little while lower than the angels;
you crowned them with glory and honor,[a]
8 and made them rulers over all things.”
It says that God made them “rulers over all things”; this clearly includes everything. We do not, however, see human beings ruling over all things now.

- Hebrews 2:7 Many manuscripts add: You made them rulers over everything you made (see Ps 8.6).
